Background
The whale dolphin has important ecological value and also has important bionic value. In China, all whales are at least national second-grade treasure protected animals. In the course of the investigation of cetaceans, the traditional approach is visual investigation. As whale dolphins breathe by means of the lungs, they must breathe out of water on average every few tens of seconds or minutes, so that they can be observed by observing the event of water exchange of animals through a telescope or directly by naked eyes. However, visual inspection of cetaceans in the field is itself a great challenge, especially for those smaller and small populations. It is more difficult to visually inspect the dolphins who have few obvious signs for identification (no dorsal fins), rapid and short-lasting outlet breathing behavior, and insignificant differences in body and water color.
Sounds that are reused by a vocalizing animal are generally species-specific. Aquatic mammals, especially whale dolphins, develop gradually in the long-term species evolution process and perfect a set of precise sonar system to help the aquatic mammals to smoothly carry out important life activities including communication, navigation, predation and the like among individuals. While cetaceans will very frequently use high energy sonar signals for communication and navigation, which allows them to be monitored using acoustic monitoring techniques.

A through hole is drilled at the position 80 cm away from the tail end of the extension rod 11 at the side of the laying rope 16, and the hole diameter is 1.0 cm. The diameters of the cloth pay-off cords 16, the extension rod pulling cords 13 and the reinforcing cords 15 are all 1.2 cm. The length (H3) of the part of the extension rod 11 extending out of the test vessel 17 is less than the length (H4) of the extension rod traction rope 13, and the length of the part of the extension rod 11 remaining on the extension rod slide rail 10 of the test vessel 17 is (H2). Typically H2 is 1 meter in length, H4 ═ H3+1 meter.
Step three: and (3) manufacturing a dragging assembly according to the data measured in the step one, wherein the dragging assembly consists of a dragging main rope, a dragging rope recovery branch rope 21, a dragging rope stress branch rope 22, a counterweight rod 3, a depth gauge 4, a monitor fixing groove 5, a universal ring 6 and a floater 7. The dragging main rope is used for carrying and dragging instruments, and the dragging rope recovery supporting rope 21 is used for being connected with the electric wire rewinding device 9 and recovering the dragging main rope and equipment. The force-bearing end of the towing rope is tied with a shackle 12, and the towing rope is connected with the shackle 12 of the extension rod towing rope 13 in series to play a role of a towing arm in towing. The weight of the weight rod 3 can be adjusted, and the depth of the monitor under water is adjusted by adjusting the weight of the weight rod 3 (H6). The depth gauge 4 is used for taking notes the degree of depth of monitor under water, and monitor fixed slot 5 is used for fixed monitoring instrument, and float 7 is used for adjusting the degree of depth of monitoring instrument under water, avoids the instrument to scrape the bottom at the in-process that drags, and universal ring 6 is used for alleviating drag system and produces great torsional force to dragging rope because of excessive rotation in the drag in-process. The length of the tail end rope of the floater 7 is 5 m, and the tail end rope is used for stabilizing the towing system and preventing large tail swing movement during towing. The distance between universal ring 6 and the float 7 is 2 meters, and the distance of 5 distance universal rings 6 in monitor fixed slot is 3 meters, and the distance of 5 distance depth gauges 4 in monitor fixed slot is 1 meter, and the distance of 4 distance depth gauges 3 is 10 meters. The length of the haulage rope stress supporting rope 22 is 2 meters, and the haulage rope stress supporting rope 22 and the recovery supporting rope 21 are provided with a length binding area of 1 meter. The distance (H5) between the main towing rope and the weight lever 3 from the stressed supporting rope 22 is determined by the noise of the ship carrying platform, and if the noise of the ship carrying platform is relatively high, H5 can be prolonged to reduce the noise interference of the noise of the ship carrying platform on the monitor. Theoretically the longer H5, the less the noise of the vessel carrying the platform itself will interfere with the monitoring equipment, but the longer H5 increases the risk of the towing installation being cut off by the vessel across it during towing. Before formal investigation, a ship noise test is required to determine the specific towing length of H5, and an optimal towing length is found from the perspective of noise interference of a ship carrying platform and safety of towing equipment. Typically the distance of H5 is selected to be 100-150 meters. The depth of the water layer from the water surface 8 (H6) where the monitoring equipment is located during towing can be adjusted by the number of the conditional weight levers 3 and recorded by the depth meter 4.
Step four: assembling the ship carrying platform and the extension assembly, welding the extension rod slide rail 10 on a deck at the stern of the ship carrying platform, and respectively keeping the distance between the two ends of the extension rod slide rail 10 and the edge of the deck at the stern of the ship carrying platform by 10 cm. When the extension rod is not used, the extension rod 11 is stored in the extension rod slide rail 10 and is fixed by the screw rod 20 penetrating through the screw hole 111 at the end of the extension rod 11 where the rope 16 is arranged and the screw hole 101 on the extension rod slide rail 10. The tail end of the extension rod traction rope 13 is tied to the mast 18 at the stern of the ship carrying platform, and is easy to take when being used conveniently. The other end of the reinforcing rope 15 of the extension rod 11 is tied to the tying pile 23 of the ship carrying platform. During the towing process, the extension rod 11 is extended out of the ship by pulling the laying rope 16.
Step five: and (5) assembling the dragging assembly. The tail end of a recovery branch rope 21 dragging a main rope close to the ship side is fixed in an electric wire rewinding device 9, a monitoring instrument is fixed in a monitor fixing groove 5, the main rope dragging is collected and placed in a containing box 19 of a ship carrying platform from a part between a counterweight rod 3 and a floater 7, and the part of the main rope dragging close to the recovery branch rope 21 is wound in the electric wire rewinding device 9. In order to prevent the cable from being entangled, when the main towing rope is put into the storage box 19, the main towing rope should be put into the storage box from the weight lever 3 side in order toward the end of the float 7.
Step six: and (5) dragging and inspecting. In the equipment laying stage, the survey ship 17 firstly sails at a low speed (5 km/h) in a straight line, and when the equipment is laid, the laying rope 16 of the extension rod 11 is firstly pulled, the extension rod 11 extends out of the ship, the extension rod 11 is aligned to the screw hole 111 penetrating through the screw hole and the screw hole 101 of the extension rod slide rail 10 and is fixed by the screw rod 20, and the extension rod 11 is prevented from loosening and falling off in the dragging process. The extension rod reinforcing rope 15 is adjusted, so that the reinforcing rope 15 is firmly bound on the binding pile 23 of the ship to form triangular tension. Throwing the tail end of the floater 7 dragging the main rope into the water surface 8 towards the side surface of the stern, slowly sending the dragging main rope into the water along the water flow, taking down the extension rod traction rope 13 in the ship mast 18 when the stressed branch rope 22 dragging the main rope is reached, hanging the stressed branch rope 22 dragging the main rope and the shackle 12 of the extension rod traction rope 13, then continuously and slowly releasing the recovery branch rope 21 dragging the main rope, tying the stressed branch rope 22 dragging the main rope and the extension rod traction rope 13 to form a stressed section of a dragging system when the extension rod traction rope 13 is stressed and straightened, and tying the recovery branch rope 21 dragging the main rope to the mast 18 of the inspection ship 17 when the recovery branch rope 21 dragging the main rope is not stressed, and then enabling the inspection ship 17 to accelerate and keep the target speed (usually 15 km/h) (fig. 3). The speed of the survey vessel 17 needs to exceed the speed at which the whale dolphins swim so that when the survey vessel 17 exceeds the whale dolphins, the whale dolphins do not swim back upstream of the survey vessel 17 resulting in a repeat count of animals. In the process of investigation, personnel are required to watch the towing system, and the towing system can be prevented from being cut off by other ships (especially the ships to be traversed) one shift per hour. The survey ship 17 deck platform both sides need install warning poster, notes: the stern of the ship is 150 meters to tow scientific research equipment, and does not need to be close to the ship, meanwhile, a person on duty needs to hold a red flag and a high-pitch playing loudspeaker so that the person on duty can be early warned to remind the stern of the equipment by going short of the notified crossing ship and some small fishing ships. In addition, the person on duty should be equipped with a high-frequency interphone, so that the person on duty can conveniently communicate with the captain in time, and can quickly make a danger avoiding response in an emergency.
In order to further improve the early warning effect to crossing boats and ships, can drag a warning rope in the offside of stern towing system, a life buoy is tied up to the rope end, and the in-process of dragging can float at surface of water 8 always, in addition, ties up on the rope of towing and tie up triangle-shaped colored flag, plays the warning effect of root number.
